The Company has a qualified team, established contacts and
working arrangements with experts in planning, developing,
production and project management and will consult with these
and others during exploration, development and production.
Management believes that the Company’s holdings can host
world-class mineral deposits, which could be the site of future
major mining operations. Also, just as the Sudbury Basin in the
20th century was host to the world’s largest production of
nickel, the 21st century could well belong to the ISR.
The Association of Professional Engineers, Geologists and
Geophysicists of the Northwest Territories, Honours and Awards
Committee chose Darnley Bay Resources Limited to receive the
Professional Award of Merit for the year 2001.
Management has also engaged geophysical,
geological, environmental and engineering consultants to gather
and analyze the available geoscience data concerning the
project. They will be used for further consultations as the
project progresses.
